Canberra Rd Trip Day 3 Majura Pines-- Note this ride is now changed to Stromlow
Majura Pines
Day 3: Again a late start to allow for what might be a late night Saturday.
No idea about Majura Pines other than it is meant to be nice single track similar to Sparrow hill.
Will leave Sunday arvo open for the moment. If Majura Pines isn't big enough we can head back to Sparrow Hill or maybe somewhere else after lunch.
Definitly looking for a local or someone with trail knowledge to tag along and lead this one. If you can please post back or PM me to let me know.
Canberra Rd Trip Day 2 Sparrow hill
Sparrow Hill
Day 2: a later than usual start to allow those coming down from Sydney the chance to get there in time.
This place is by far the best place I have ever ridden and think a day there should be no probs at all.
As a suggestion we start with a group ride of the full loop, back to the cars for a BBQ lunch or maybe a run back into Queenbeyan for lunch, then back onto the trails for an arvo of fun. Maybe roid boys can do a quick lap and the rest of us can go back to the particularly sweet parts, lets play all that by ear.
Canberra Rd Trip Mt Stromlow
First time there so lets meet at the designated spot on the ride gallery and take it from there
The first ride in what shall be a very long weekend in the saddle. First time at Stromlow and unfortunately I believe only the XC track will be open but lets go and explore.
Don't forget Friday is not a public holiday so you will probably need to take the day off if you want to join us.
If we have any Canberra / local "lurkers" that would like to play tour guide barbie then please let us know.
All welcome.
Marramarra - the grand expedition
Bloodwood Road, Fiddletown - (will get a map reference shortly)
Hi all,
Some people are interested in getting back out to the Marramarra National Park. Me? I will be a first timer.
By the sound of the trail review (thanks Rob!) this will be an interesting ride that contains all the hallmarks of a fantastic single trail ride. Uphill, downhill, single trail, some fire trail, rocky bits, excellent exploration, and a lot of fun! Come along and join in the good times.

An earlier discussion of this proposed ride is here:
Duck Hole + Centre + Meet lurkers
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
There's another ride at Terrey Hills this morning: Easter Social Ride.
That one is billed as a beginners/lurkers/newbie ride. For those wanting to be sociable, but also go a little further, a little faster here's a proposed second ride, starting half an hour earlier at 8am.
We can blast round the Duck Hole/Centre Track loop then hit Perimeter and Long Trail. The added part is 14Km which should see the other group get a 10-20 minute head start. There's always the option to drop down to Duffys Trail on the way too if this proves to be not enough.
The Massive Northern Beaches Ride
Jamieson Park, off The Esplanade on the southern shore of Narrabeen Lake. There is a BBQ area there.
Riding from Narrabeen Lake, heading generally west through Oxford Falls, Red Hill, over to Terrey Hills, and all the way back. We may alter the order a bit on the day, depending on logistics and personal preference. And we will probably need to stop somewhere convenient to get more water too.

Hope to see you there on the 14th! This will be massive!
Thanks,
Liam.
